    Well, the modern conflicts are in countries that are actually not worth managing or owning. Just get the oil and leave the rest of it to fester, oh did I release the long term plans again, damn.

    As for Tibet and China, like Tibet can do anything about it? We should assist them, a good ruck with China will battle prove a lot of our kit and reverse the spending cuts.
    Russia Japan. Not sure Japan is truly interested in getting it back? What’s Kan up to? Diverting attention away from the disaster into something which the Japanese people feel strongly about(Against) the Russians? But, the Northern territories people themselves want to stay with Russia, so I read.

    Old Haunts of mine: –
    The Smutt inn in Oldham, then cross over and down the road a bit to “Help the poor struggler” – the pub owned by our last hangman Albert Pierrepoint.
    Then jump on the Buz to Manchester and sample the Copenhagen, Lass-o-Gowrie, Peverill of the Peak, Tommy Ducks, Swan with two Necks, Alberts Shed.

    Now that the wreckage is visible – I too ponder why no survivors ?

    As reflected upon by Bmused55 there have been survivors from far worse crashes, and this was within the airport just short of the tower. Fire attendance could not have been delayed as they have been thanked by the Mayor for their part.

    It must be awful for the bereaved to see the video footage and wreckage as they must have the same grief stricken questions – why no survivors ?

    Although the Fuse is Ally, the Floor (And lots of other bits including the Cockpit floor and all the panels in the ‘pit) are CFRP. Gives off very very toxic gases once alight and burns very easily once alight. Overcome by fumes or very high temperature I would suspect.
    RIP.
    Was that their only 650 prototype?

    Ditto.
    Obviously avoid the X rated, and obviously allow the Disneyish……but the others, I tend to watch first and judge. My lad is 8. Any swearing but the F word I tend to let through, but he’s bright enough to still know it’s wrong.

    Similar vain, he was doing Electricity at School and consequently got an overconfidence in Plugs and Sockets. Having explained that it kills if not treated with respect he started asking how it kills, again, explanations on heart stopping and muscle spasms etc.
    So, I found on YouTube a clip of an Indian man walking along the roof of a train…..you guessed it, ZAP…he falls down dead in the same position he grabbed the wire and then starts to ignite and burn.
    Now, he fully respects electricity! Shock tactics (No pun intended)

    Apparently, Petrov is under investigation by the Malaysian CAA for flying without a licence.

    Lucky he didn’t flip!
    The camera angle was perfect for it, there will be HD version “Stills” available soon no doubt. Very dramatic.

    Only at the back door.:diablo:

    That’s probably the crudest thing I’ve ever written here…my apologizes to all.

    I think you’ll find it a Front door service anyway!

    Tornado, it’s Peover, pronounced Peever. Btw 🙂

    And, I’m sure I saw in a Museum (Manchester or Liverpool) that the origin of the word sh1t was due to an area in Manchester called the Sh1tters, a very poor area on the River, where the people would openly poo from their window into the River.
    Most origin websites suggest it was from the German word for diarrhoea……which is Greek for “Flowing through”.
